I honestly feel sorry for the actors Michael Keaton, Ben Affleck, Sasha Calle, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Kiersey Clemons, Michael Shannon, Ron Livingston, George Clooney, Jeremy Irons, Nicolas Cage, Helen Slater, Maribel Verdú, and even Ian Loh (the actor who played young Barry). Apart from Ezra Miller for obvious reasons, they all deserve better than this.
I had a feeling that movie was going to be straight garbage. It's sad cause the first 3 movies were classics. I guess people in Hollywood just don't give a shit anymore.
@@michaelmenei5403 At least Cobra Kai, Blade Runner 2049 and Top Gun Maverick rejects modernity mentality (ala Bill and Ted in Bill and Ted 3, Luke in Last Jedi, Indy 5 Indy, Scream 5 dewey) and embraced tradition on classic cinematic heroes like Deckard, Maverick and Daniel Larusso and given redemption
This is easily one of the most overhyped/overrated movies of the year. I always thought Ezra Miller was super miscast as Barry Allen and he was really annoying/insufferable in this as well.
And then stupidly kill him and Supergirl off which pissed me off. The only good thing was the touching ending and the George Clooney cameo was kind of funny. Granted weren’t those deaths reversed anyway ?
I won’t lie I went to see it just because of Michael Keaton’s Batman and I had a gift card to use. I wanted to see him as Batman on the big screen since I wasn’t there in 1989. It was also nice to see Ben Affleck’s Batman again and for the last time. One of the only positives of this universe. I still stand by they did him dirty. Besides the suicide squad movies and the first Wonder Woman, the DCEU was a complete mess. Hopefully James Gunn will do a better job.
I was in the middle of watching Independence Day when I saw that Matt uploaded this review (I think I just started the July 4th segment of the movie to be exact). The remainder of the movie was the longest last 45-60 minutes ever. I wanted to watch Matt's review. And although I've seen Independence Day what feels like a million times, I wanted to finish it first before the review.

Michael Keaton and Sasha Calle were really the only things I liked in this, but they definitely did Michael Keaton dirty in the end by killing him off although that just seems to be another stupid trend in Hollywood nowadays.
I didn’t even bother seeing this. First it was solely because of Ezra Miller but then, oh boy, I heard keaton’s Batman dies in this film and that made me go “yep fuck this movie already” so glad I didn’t waste my time or money
I watched the movie, but I didn't pay for it. I know of a streaming site. They had the movie up. Of course, I had to watch a copy of the movie where someone films it in the theater, but the streaming site I know of had it up and I watched it. Glad I didn't pay to watch it. Extraction 2 was the better movie to release on June 16th. That I actually went to Netflix and watched it (twice) instead of going to that streaming site I watched The Flash on.

My biggest problem with The Flash is how the entire story is about Barry trying to fix the things he did wrong, just for Barry to make the same fucking mistake again by the end. And because of that everything changed again. This guy didn’t learn his lesson at all. Like what was the point of the movie then? This doesn’t feel like a satisfying ending to the DCEU at all. I thought he would somehow reboot the entire universe which would start the James Gunn universe, but no we have Aquaman Wonder Woman and George Clooney as Batman? We also probably get a new Flash as well, like how does that work? Are these characters and relationships the same in the new DC universe, because if they are it doesn’t make any sense Edit: oh you said the same thing haha
Epic job on this epic rant on a film that should have been shelved and cancelled in the first place. The studio should have taken the tax write off and then shifted their focus to a Batman Beyond film with Michael Keaton in a futuristic future version of the Burtonverse. But nooo...DC had to once again try to chase Marvel's money train and made a half assed version of Spider-Man: No Way Home.
I surprise they didn’t put the 1990 tv show flash as a cameo scene at the end with the other superheroes with nick and reeves and Helen and 1940s superman and 1960s batman
That's because he won't return unless Nolan is directing whatever superhero movie his Batman/Bruce is supposed to be in. He's said that a whole bunch of times. So of course he said no to The Flash.
Good, his a smart man. Made the right call since he doesn’t take anything for a paycheck. He seems like the type who’s very passionate over his roles and doesn’t do it just for the money
Extraction 2 was definitely the better movie to release on June 16th. Also I get the whole thing of visually seeing Michael Keaton. That was my big complaint and why i was making a big deal of him dying. Yeah, Flash does go back in time and it's implied that he puts an end to Michael Keaton dying, but the last time we see him onscreen, it's his death. Oh and the only DC movie I care about right now is The Batman 2 since it'll have nothing to do with James Gunn's universe. And it's already off to a bad start because I heard Keaton was in the ending of The Flash, but James Gunn had stuff changed so it was Clooney's Bruce Wayne. There is even shots of Keaton filming the ending and him being at the courthouse. But no. Gunn wanted to change it to Clooney. So I DO NOT trust Gunn. The ONLY DC movie I care about right now is The Batman 2, which is a DC Elseworld movie.
You ain't alone. I hated this film! Extraction 2 was good but I hated the ending and that dumb ass teenager who got the one lady's brother killed. Keaton and the chick who played Supergirl were the highlights but this film butchered the Flashpoint storyline. It's like they knew that they had good but they axed it out of support for Ezra Miller and his special privileged ass! The only DC films I wanna see is The Batman 2, Joker 2 and I'm curious about Gunn's Superman because I like the guy they got for the film.
@@wiinterflowers4277, I liked 2’s ending. We got some final fight. The fight could’ve went on a little longer, but at least we got some final showdown between the good guy and bad guy. Plus I liked how Chris Hemsworth kills the main guy. Also, the ending gave Chris Hemsworth some closure on his son’s death. That internal struggle is over with. Now Chris Hemsworth can go into 3 with a clear head. He’ll be in a better mental state. Plus he can be more of a hero since his son said he saw his dad as some hero. It’ll be crazy to see what Chris Hemsworth’s character is capable of with a clear head and a new motivation. He isn’t doing the job now hoping to die. He’s doing it to be that hero his son saw him as.
@@projectpat8807 You summed it up perfectly. I liked that he got closure but I hate that he had to go to jail. Also they need to keep the Russos away from Chris Hemsworth!
55:05-55:13 She does look like that now I think about it bro LOL. 1:02:49 I just seen clips of those cameos your 100% right bro the CGI looks horrible even the ones for George Reeves''Superman'' too. Now this is a very EPIC RANT indeed bro!👍👍
Supposedly the same director, producer and many others who worked on this movie is COMING BACK to direct James Gunn's Batman movie for his "NEW VISION OF THE DC WORLD" aka "DCU". How stupid can you be to bring back ANYONE who worked on what is being called "the biggest film bomb of history" to work on your NEW universe???? This is stupid. I want to say it first before anyone else, right here right now: James Gunn's universe and superman movie will make the early dceu films and man of steel look like MASTERPIECES! Mark these words down.
Knew this was coming. I hated this film with passion. Worst film this year. Ezra Miller should act again. He's trash as an actor and a human being. The beyond horrible cgi and the baby scene was so cringe inducing. Michael Keaton and Sasha Calle was the best part, but they were so wasted.
Honestly they could’ve written Barry Allan as autistic without making him an immature idiot in the process. Work and saving people could’ve been his hyper fixations, he could’ve had trouble making friends because there’s no other people like him until… he’s introduced to the Justice League and they give him a safe space where he can talk about superhero stuff. Tacos could be his comfort food and Iris could be his only friend that he talks to outside of being a superhero and then they could develop feelings for each other that way. Oh, and he’s not late to work because you know, he’s The Flash.
21:00 I gotta be honest, this might not be the editors fault. It could be that the director forgot to film that scene. The editor can’t really make something that isn’t there.
I don't know why mofos be sucking off Games Junn. That dude was involved with some dirt sheet films such as The Crash, Movie 43, BrightButt, The Suicide Squatch, Scooby Doo-doo 2. A lot of those films are failures. The fact that people are treating him like he's the savior of DC is pretty laughable.
I thought the scene with him telling his other self that no matter we do we can't change certain things during the final fight. I also thought the scene with him and his mom at the end was very well done.
0:30 This is going to be really good!!!!!!!!!!🤣🤣 2:17 I really wish they would've just released ''Batgirl'' instead while this film should've been the one to be destoyed and never to have been released IMHO. 3:19 Really? Wow talk about doing a disservice to his Batman and to his fans as well. 9:53 Agreed but I still feel that his character didn't deserve to have his own HBO Max series at all. 10:41 Yeah I could see that. 12:24 May He Rest In Peace. 14:09-14:48 True bro🤣🤣🤣🤣 16:14 Yeah right just like Sony wanting to do either another Andrew Garfield or Tobey Maguire Spiderman sequel there is nothing written in stone at all Matt. 19:48 That scene alone to me makes me wonder what scene was in that ''Batgirl'' film that was way worst that made the powers that be say ''this film most never see the light of day and it has to be destoryed'' meanwhile they seen this film along with that scene they decide this needs to been released and shown?? 23:10🤣🤣🤣🤣 I actually never mind her theme I just wish we had a way better actress playing ''Wonder Women'' instead of Gal. 23:56 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 28:24 Agree 100% with you. 30:49 Exactly that's a very underrated film.
What up Matt. I am not a fan of James Gunn. He always shit up Marvel and DC comic book movies. The CGI is terrible, weak. I couldn't believe that Michael Keaton as Batman gets killed, Supergirl was wasted. I have no offence to Sasha Calle either.
That’s a great movie. There was a cancelled live action Flash movie in the 2000s starring Ryan Reynolds as Flash from screenwriter David S Goyer who wrote Blade 1 & 2. His script was fantastic and this version should’ve been made instead of what we got Watch this video later and tell me your thoughts th-cam.com/video/Ih09ExtZq08/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZLcsk7AReq68vX3r
It's kinda funny because I have been talking shit about this movie for years. Zack Snyder could have given us a much more comic accurate Flashpoint instead of Flash No Way Home. Speaking of which, I read both Flash Rebirth and Flashpoint, and let me say this movie doesn't even come close to any comics.
I totally agree with you. I thought this movie was an absolute mess. As much I liked Michael Keaton returning as Batman, I just wasn't feeling it completely. I don't know. It is like, he is back in time and has this ability to keep changing the past and the present. So it seemed like it all did not matter as much. Batman or Supergirl did not matter as much. It was just these cheap experiences created by whatever reality he would choose. Call me heartless, but I did not really care about his mommy issues that much either. Yes, it is creative and perhaps different in many ways than the usual superhero movie, but that isn't always a good thing.
The MOST miscast actor of all time. Horrible actor. Supergirl sucked too. Is it hard to have Flash aka Barry Allen blonde? Is that too much to ask? How many Barry's have we had and they still can't cast someone who is blonde or have a guy dye his hair. I know it's a small thing, but I want to see the character from the comics. Same goes for Supergirl. P.s. Even Chris Evans DYED his hair for Captain America for crying out loud.
Ralph is right! Spiderman: No Way Home was one of the biggest nostalgia-baiting movies I've ever seen, and everybody fell for it. Movies today lack creativity, imagination and innovation. Those three core concepts mean nothing without heart, passion, guts, and skill. Writing men and women shouldn't be this damn hard, I wish they would stop interjecting their forced politics into movies and remaking, rebooting, remaking already established franchise that are dead. Let everything rest for a while, find young talented writers, directors, and actors that are hungry for work and ready to put their soul into a project, to make changes and revise their work if need be. Bring some new titles to the film industry. I don't understand why Marvel and DC are the only ones that are able to make superhero movies, we've got tons of history and mythology to pull from. The key is not originality, it's execution. What is going to make me sympathize and empathize with the main and supporting characters. Are they psychologically complex with a backstory, personality, likes, dislikes and most important flaws. If you're female character is perfect and an omnipotent Mary Sue goddess, then nobody is going to root for them, if all your male characters are evil, nobody will respect your film because it's one-dimensional. You'd think the executives and bosses who own these major companies would know all this stuff or at least hire people to inform them on why their losing money and everybody hates them.
I actually personally liked this film. Granted the CGI is really bad but even though The main actor did something horrible, I'll separate the art from the artist. Ezra Miller performance as The Flash an with the other version of himself was funny, the cameo's were funny with Nick Cage an George Clooney was very funny, Lol 🙂 The action was cool an Michael Keaton as Batman in this put on a Good performance 🙂
Yeah this movie didn't work for me either > They took a really awesome all-time classic flash story and made it into a slap sticc joke movie with a couple of good emotional resident scenes which could of been used in a way better flashpoint movie.
It should’ve been a murder mystery superhero movie because Barry when back in time to found out who killed his mother and Barry needed Batman 89 de detective skills to help him with the murder mystery it sounds better than what we got from this movie
I didn't see this movie obviously because of Ezra Miller. From what I've been hearing, it sounds like a shitshow with all those CG cameos and nostalgia bait.
4:40 - HAHA... 19:03 - lmao. Yes why didn't Flash never find his mom's killer? This is what this movie does it destroys logic and your brain cells die instantaneously. Oh god yes I HATED the younger Flash and his laugh I rather listen to nails on a chalkboard. I hated what they did to Keaton's Batman here and it destroys any and all hope for a proper and well thought out return. Horrendous CGI all around, horribly directed and written as well as takes a big dump on the past via awful cameos. Let's get nuts? No this movie can suck my nuts and Ezra needs to go to prison. Great rant!
Matt went off in a classic EPIC RANT😊 the flash is for sure The worse IP of 2023. James Gunn has been exposed and Superman Legacy will officially prove that when that comes out. And I will laugh at the GUNN fanboys for live😂😂😂
Listen......no,i am not an accountant- but when i see/hear about production companies green- lighting a movie then AFTER its wrapped up filming the company (Warner Bros) decides "oh we cannot allow our beautiful viewer's to see this film because its not good!" Well i don't believe THAT so there has to be another reason to not allow a 100 or 200 million dollar movie to not be shown at cinemas...i know film companies don't like losing money ....so maybe its a tax write off - does anyone really know please tell me!?
In the comics and even in the CW show Barry's mom was killed by a evil Speedster known as reverse flash to make Barry's life A living hell by killing his mom and framing his dad.
I agree Matt I hated this film too. This is my most overrated movie of the year. The more I thought about this, the more i despised this piece of garbage
I was looking forward to the movie until I saw the trailer. The trailer just looked like everything I was hoping the film wouldn't be. I wasn't a big fan of pattinson's batman, but I'm not surprised that film did a lot better than this.
No wonder people are hating this film. Zach Snyder just has a huge fetish to keep doing these DCEU films, and just because you include two Batman's, especially with Michael FUCKING Keaton in it doesn't mean it will make it any better, especially for his fan base of Batman films which is a disgrace. I don't want to go into Ezra Miller, but this should've never been released along with his allegations. Zach Snyder also needs to retire for good. Awesome rant, Matt! I will never see this film.
just shows how creatively bankrupt this era of movies and multiverse nonsense is that they can bring back a defeated villain (a boring one at that from a heavily flawed movie) and him be a threat that actually screws over their world with no happy ending really. man, they brought the modern Batman back to do him wrong.
I can’t wait for Indiana jones 5 to review because I heard it sucks too and I never want to watch 4 and 5 anyway so I don’t care about the franchise anymore
@@colewarnerreviews5834 I love them to and I still got the 1992 VHS tape all three collections the original version not the remastered version that they put out in the early 2000s My favorite one and best one is temple of doom
I have never been impressed by crossovers (or "All Stars", as it was referred back in the 1990s). Crossovers always come off as cringe. Its very rare when a crossover works for me.
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THONG AS I WATCHED THIS MOVIE TODAY > THEY REALLY SEEN HOW MARVEL TREATS SPIDERMAN AND THOUGHT TO THEMSELVES THATS HOW WE NEED TO DO ARE FLASH
This movie is proof superhero fatigue is very real. Guardians made good $ bc it was the last one. Other than tht these movies are gonna keep flopping if it ain’t Spidey Bat or Deadpool. 3 hr bloated cgi garbage. James Gunn Superman need to be delayed a few years. The fatigue is real and tht DCEU stink is still in the air. There’s good nostalgic n there’s bad nostalgia. The 80s isn’t nostalgia anymore it’s just old. Seeing Keaton u laugh at it. Who’s this for? 40 year olds? Nostalgia is the 00s now. Thts why NWH worked. Bale would’ve made more sense. Can’t get him. Then don’t do it.
I LOVE THE FLASH AND BARRY ALLEN AS THE FLASH BUT THIS IS NOT HOW BARRY WOULD ACT/SOUND/ LOOK/ TALK just everything they did with ezra miller was bad characterization.
The flash is good character in the comics and animated stuff but Ezra is the most worst casted actor since Kate bosworth as Lois lane just does not fit the character no wonder they changed the flashpoint story cause Ezra can’t be the flash cause that version demands an Adam brody who was cast In George miller’s cancelled justice League movie or a comedic and dramatic actor with charm for the film and not a creepy Jared from subway like awkward fruit cake but even when he does all these controversial and looney things and people demand a recast even with the tv version instead they thought the audience would go and see a film with this basically criminal in it is the peak of human stupidity and they knew this film wasn’t gonna do well so they put Keaton in here for nostalgia that’s why he is there enough said
Adam Brody would be a better choice. He was great in Ready or Not and I liked him in Shazam films. I've warmed up to him and he's got that nerdy but likable vibe. Not to mention he's sane, pretty and likable in real life. Not to mention, his wife is absolutely gorgeous!
I loved seeing Keaton again, but they wasted him. The Christopher Reeve cameo was painful as a fan of those films. This movie shouldn't exist, why didn't they just make Batman 3 with Michael Keaton, and have Billy Dee as Two Face. That should have been made in the 1990s instead of Batman Forever.
@@BRIANOCONNOR2003 , true they don't even care if a film flops if they can have over a billion in toy sales like Batman and Robin. It is a bad way to make movies. Surprised Tim even put up with the insane asks of the producers like that hairdresser guy. Jon Peters. and worked with him again on Superman lives, which never was made, probably regrets that.
that scene with the food eating and saving babies was absolute trash. James Gunn calling this one of the greatest films ever made he's deluded. Ezra Miller was the worse choice to play The Flash he's even more cringe in this than he was in Justice League. You can totally tell the Clooney cameo was a reshoot due to Millers fatter fat and hair. apparently Nicolas Cage shot that cameo in person and yet it its CGI trash.
I didn't find it but not great either I think maybe the multiverse stuff in this film might be more convoluted than Spider-Man No Way Home. Some of the humour I liked the referential stuff though, which they might have been forced. I liked the performances well especially by Michael Keaton I can see the views on Ezra Miller's performance. I thought I heard some motifs of the music from the Matrix used in this film.
Barry got naked in the streets and we didn’t need supergirl in the film 🎥 just flash villains only and not superman villains and we just needed the flash and batman 89 and some flash superheroes that it
Glad to see Epic Rants are still here.
I think this is going to be one of those rare times he does it. I think a movie REALLY has to earn it now, and The Flash definitely did.
Yeah matt roehler is the king of epic rants especially scream 6 which that movie I hate so much

There is even shots of Keaton filming the ending and him being at the courthouse. But no. Gunn wanted to change it to Clooney. So I DO NOT trust Gunn. The ONLY DC movie I care about right now is The Batman 2, which is a DC Elseworld movie.
You ain't alone. I hated this film! Extraction 2 was good but I hated the ending and that dumb ass teenager who got the one lady's brother killed. Keaton and the chick who played Supergirl were the highlights but this film butchered the Flashpoint storyline. It's like they knew that they had good but they axed it out of support for Ezra Miller and his special privileged ass! The only DC films I wanna see is The Batman 2, Joker 2 and I'm curious about Gunn's Superman because I like the guy they got for the film.
The first.The Batman movie was terrible. It had a terrible plot.
@@LordMalice6d9, The Batman was amazing. My favorite movie of 2022.
@@wiinterflowers4277, I liked 2’s ending. We got some final fight. The fight could’ve went on a little longer, but at least we got some final showdown between the good guy and bad guy. Plus I liked how Chris Hemsworth kills the main guy. Also, the ending gave Chris Hemsworth some closure on his son’s death. That internal struggle is over with. Now Chris Hemsworth can go into 3 with a clear head. He’ll be in a better mental state. Plus he can be more of a hero since his son said he saw his dad as some hero. It’ll be crazy to see what Chris Hemsworth’s character is capable of with a clear head and a new motivation. He isn’t doing the job now hoping to die. He’s doing it to be that hero his son saw him as.
@@projectpat8807 You summed it up perfectly. I liked that he got closure but I hate that he had to go to jail. Also they need to keep the Russos away from Chris Hemsworth!
55:05-55:13 She does look like that now I think about it bro LOL.
1:02:49 I just seen clips of those cameos your 100% right bro the CGI looks horrible even the ones for George Reeves''Superman'' too.
Now this is a very EPIC RANT indeed bro!👍👍
This movie is What I describe it as DC’s Strange World!
Supposedly the same director, producer and many others who worked on this movie is COMING BACK to direct James Gunn's Batman movie for his "NEW VISION OF THE DC WORLD" aka "DCU". How stupid can you be to bring back ANYONE who worked on what is being called "the biggest film bomb of history" to work on your NEW universe???? This is stupid. I want to say it first before anyone else, right here right now: James Gunn's universe and superman movie will make the early dceu films and man of steel look like MASTERPIECES! Mark these words down.
I like the flash tv show from the 90s and the comics
I finally saw this recently and it's a speeding dumpster fire.
Knew this was coming. I hated this film with passion. Worst film this year. Ezra Miller should act again. He's trash as an actor and a human being. The beyond horrible cgi and the baby scene was so cringe inducing. Michael Keaton and Sasha Calle was the best part, but they were so wasted.
Agreed
They were both arguably the best thing and they got done dirty
Honestly they could’ve written Barry Allan as autistic without making him an immature idiot in the process.
Work and saving people could’ve been his hyper fixations, he could’ve had trouble making friends because there’s no other people like him until… he’s introduced to the Justice League and they give him a safe space where he can talk about superhero stuff.
Tacos could be his comfort food and Iris could be his only friend that he talks to outside of being a superhero and then they could develop feelings for each other that way. Oh, and he’s not late to work because you know, he’s The Flash.
I think I speak for everyone here when I say that I’m really interested in seeing what you think of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
Epic Rant for the ages
@@kingslayer2999with that ending with the goddaughter, the rant video might go on for about 5 hours. Can’t wait lmao
Matt is maybe the only person who liked Crystal Skull, so this review will be interesting.
@@NateTheGnatNope. I like the movie too and so do many others. I never jumped on the hate train for Crystal Skull
@@TotalMeltdown2 i'm glad you like it, but it just makes me depressed to watch it. i'll stick with the original trilogy.
I thankfully refused to watch this film.
The best live-action Flash/speedster around today is A-Train from The Boys.
A very complex supervillain.
I say Quicksilver from X-Men but to each their own
21:00 I gotta be honest, this might not be the editors fault. It could be that the director forgot to film that scene. The editor can’t really make something that isn’t there.
I don't know why mofos be sucking off Games Junn. That dude was involved with some dirt sheet films such as The Crash, Movie 43, BrightButt, The Suicide Squatch, Scooby Doo-doo 2. A lot of those films are failures. The fact that people are treating him like he's the savior of DC is pretty laughable.
Brightbitch is a better term for Brightburn.
Remember Confused Matthew's rant on James Gunn? That describes how overrated he is.
Hey suicide squad and Scooby doo were good.
@@Neopunk2023 Hey their first movies were. THE suicide squad and Scooby Doo-doo 2 were just bad.
@@quietkrys2705Nah The Suicide Squad was amazing man. I agree with your other takes though
YES!!! THE 'RANT' comes back!! Great review Matt, fuck this movie. I like how you got angrier and angrier as the review went along
I personally like this film but to each their own. We all have our own opinions. I thought this Epic Rant was hilarious, Lol 🙂
I thought the scene with him telling his other self that no matter we do we can't change certain things during the final fight.
I also thought the scene with him and his mom at the end was very well done.
@@anubusx yeah, I agree, I thought those scenes were touching too.
@@michaelgray4218
I will admit they were really sad.
0:30 This is going to be really good!!!!!!!!!!🤣🤣
2:17 I really wish they would've just released ''Batgirl'' instead while this film should've been the one to be destoyed and never to have been released IMHO.
3:19 Really? Wow talk about doing a disservice to his Batman and to his fans as well.
9:53 Agreed but I still feel that his character didn't deserve to have his own HBO Max series at all.
10:41 Yeah I could see that.
12:24 May He Rest In Peace.
14:09-14:48 True bro🤣🤣🤣🤣
16:14 Yeah right just like Sony wanting to do either another Andrew Garfield or Tobey Maguire Spiderman sequel there is nothing written in stone at all Matt.
19:48 That scene alone to me makes me wonder what scene was in that ''Batgirl'' film that was way worst that made the powers that be say ''this film most never see the light of day and it has to be destoryed'' meanwhile they seen this film along with that scene they decide this needs to been released and shown??
23:10🤣🤣🤣🤣 I actually never mind her theme I just wish we had a way better actress playing ''Wonder Women'' instead of Gal.
23:56 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
28:24 Agree 100% with you.
30:49 Exactly that's a very underrated film.
Matt just busted out a dope freestyle 😎
It's a Flash in the pan. A toilet pan.
They could’ve just been made a batman beyond movie with the batman 89 as a old man and put some body new in the terry part
Maybe we’ll still still get it one day ?
Absolutely love your spiderman no way home review, I forced myself to watch this awful film (the flash)just to watch this review!
Keep it up!
Thank you.
What up Matt. I am not a fan of James Gunn. He always shit up Marvel and DC comic book movies. The CGI is terrible, weak. I couldn't believe that Michael Keaton as Batman gets killed, Supergirl was wasted. I have no offence to Sasha Calle either.
You can blame the MCU for why nostalgia in the movie business has become a thing
Wanna see a good Flash movie? Watch the animated movie The Flashpoint Paradox.
That’s a great movie.
There was a cancelled live action Flash movie in the 2000s starring Ryan Reynolds as Flash from screenwriter David S Goyer who wrote Blade 1 & 2. His script was fantastic and this version should’ve been made instead of what we got
Watch this video later and tell me your thoughts th-cam.com/video/Ih09ExtZq08/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZLcsk7AReq68vX3r
There is an alternate ending with Keaton that hopefully will come out
Do you have the link to it
@@BRIANOCONNOR2003 wait for the dvd
Wont salvage the film
It's kinda funny because I have been talking shit about this movie for years. Zack Snyder could have given us a much more comic accurate Flashpoint instead of Flash No Way Home.
Speaking of which, I read both Flash Rebirth and Flashpoint, and let me say this movie doesn't even come close to any comics.
The Flashpoint Paradox is still the best flash movie. Pretty accurate to the comic as well
I totally agree with you. I thought this movie was an absolute mess. As much I liked Michael Keaton returning as Batman, I just wasn't feeling it completely. I don't know. It is like, he is back in time and has this ability to keep changing the past and the present. So it seemed like it all did not matter as much. Batman or Supergirl did not matter as much. It was just these cheap experiences created by whatever reality he would choose. Call me heartless, but I did not really care about his mommy issues that much either. Yes, it is creative and perhaps different in many ways than the usual superhero movie, but that isn't always a good thing.
Also I'd rather watch Black Adam over The Flash. The Rock is much better than Ezra Miller.
Black adam is worse just like the flash
@@garryblowjr.True.
I should've said if I was held at gunpoint and I had to pick between the two I prefer Black Adam.
I agree to that
Black Adam was a good movie
The MOST miscast actor of all time. Horrible actor. Supergirl sucked too. Is it hard to have Flash aka Barry Allen blonde? Is that too much to ask? How many Barry's have we had and they still can't cast someone who is blonde or have a guy dye his hair. I know it's a small thing, but I want to see the character from the comics. Same goes for Supergirl.
P.s. Even Chris Evans DYED his hair for Captain America for crying out loud.
Ralph is right! Spiderman: No Way Home was one of the biggest nostalgia-baiting movies I've ever seen, and everybody fell for it. Movies today lack creativity, imagination and innovation. Those three core concepts mean nothing without heart, passion, guts, and skill. Writing men and women shouldn't be this damn hard, I wish they would stop interjecting their forced politics into movies and remaking, rebooting, remaking already established franchise that are dead. Let everything rest for a while, find young talented writers, directors, and actors that are hungry for work and ready to put their soul into a project, to make changes and revise their work if need be.
Bring some new titles to the film industry. I don't understand why Marvel and DC are the only ones that are able to make superhero movies, we've got tons of history and mythology to pull from. The key is not originality, it's execution. What is going to make me sympathize and empathize with the main and supporting characters. Are they psychologically complex with a backstory, personality, likes, dislikes and most important flaws. If you're female character is perfect and an omnipotent Mary Sue goddess, then nobody is going to root for them, if all your male characters are evil, nobody will respect your film because it's one-dimensional. You'd think the executives and bosses who own these major companies would know all this stuff or at least hire people to inform them on why their losing money and everybody hates them.
I thought No Way Home was alright but it’s something how that ended up making a lot of money yet Flash didn’t at all
The Flash (2023) aka The Woke
I actually personally liked this film. Granted the CGI is really bad but even though The main actor did something horrible, I'll separate the art from the artist.
Ezra Miller performance as The Flash an with the other version of himself was funny, the cameo's were funny with Nick Cage an George Clooney was very funny, Lol 🙂
The action was cool an Michael Keaton as Batman in this put on a Good performance 🙂
Then you have bad taste in movies
Yeah this movie didn't work for me either > They took a really awesome all-time classic flash story and made it into a slap sticc joke movie with a couple of good emotional resident scenes which could of been used in a way better flashpoint movie.
It should’ve been a murder mystery superhero movie because Barry when back in time to found out who killed his mother and Barry needed Batman 89 de detective skills to help him with the murder mystery it sounds better than what we got from this movie
Yes indeed
It might have worked
I didn't see this movie obviously because of Ezra Miller. From what I've been hearing, it sounds like a shitshow with all those CG cameos and nostalgia bait.
A dud
4:40 - HAHA... 19:03 - lmao. Yes why didn't Flash never find his mom's killer? This is what this movie does it destroys logic and your brain cells die instantaneously. Oh god yes I HATED the younger Flash and his laugh I rather listen to nails on a chalkboard. I hated what they did to Keaton's Batman here and it destroys any and all hope for a proper and well thought out return. Horrendous CGI all around, horribly directed and written as well as takes a big dump on the past via awful cameos. Let's get nuts? No this movie can suck my nuts and Ezra needs to go to prison. Great rant!
Awesome rant Matt and Michael Keaton was used better in Spiderman Homecoming in my opinion.
"please leave the planet please" omg lol. That sums it up well
Matt went off in a classic EPIC RANT😊 the flash is for sure The worse IP of 2023. James Gunn has been exposed and Superman Legacy will officially prove that when that comes out. And I will laugh at the GUNN fanboys for live😂😂😂
As soon as I saw not just Rant but Epic Rant in the title I immediately clicked.
I heard they bought back George Clooney
Yep. It's just his Bruce Wayne though and it's right at the end.
@@projectpat8807 and i thought Clooney wanted to Distance himself from this after his embarrassment and humiliation with batman and Robin
@@marlonclark1896
A huge pay cheque for a minute and a half scene.
ah shit maybe ben Affleck will play the ole batman in a beyond movie
Listen......no,i am not an accountant- but when i see/hear about production companies green- lighting a movie then AFTER its wrapped up filming the company (Warner Bros) decides "oh we cannot allow our beautiful viewer's to see this film because its not good!"
Well i don't believe THAT so there has to be another reason to not allow a 100 or 200 million dollar movie to not be shown at cinemas...i know film companies don't like losing money ....so maybe its a tax write off - does anyone really know please tell me!?
Bruh, this was frustrating to watch.
Who in the hell killed the mom and Why target her in the house.
In the comics and even in the CW show Barry's mom was killed by a evil Speedster known as reverse flash to make Barry's life A living hell by killing his mom and framing his dad.
@@jasongradyphstiger6179 Ok
I agree Matt I hated this film too. This is my most overrated movie of the year. The more I thought about this, the more i despised this piece of garbage
Satvitar or black flash or the reverse flash should’ve been the one of the main villains in this movie 🎥
Two barry was annoying watching it in the theater 🎭
THE MOM IS KILLED BY PROFESSOR ZOOM IN COMICS BUT AGAIN WHO EVER WROTE THIS SCRIPT DID NOT WANT TO DO A FULL ON FLASHPOINT MOVIE.
I was looking forward to the movie until I saw the trailer. The trailer just looked like everything I was hoping the film wouldn't be. I wasn't a big fan of pattinson's batman, but I'm not surprised that film did a lot better than this.
No wonder people are hating this film. Zach Snyder just has a huge fetish to keep doing these DCEU films, and just because you include two Batman's, especially with Michael FUCKING Keaton in it doesn't mean it will make it any better, especially for his fan base of Batman films which is a disgrace. I don't want to go into Ezra Miller, but this should've never been released along with his allegations. Zach Snyder also needs to retire for good. Awesome rant, Matt! I will never see this film.
Zach Snyder didn't make this movie.
@ramboraph4life My bad. I actually forgot he wasn't involved in this. Still though this director of IT 1 & 2 should never direct again.
If they would of gotten a better actor to play Flash and the trailer looked good I would watch it
Since the film tanked, they're gonna recast the Flash.
MICHAEL KEATEN SHOULD'NT EVEN BE IN THIS MOVIE IT SHOULD JEFFERY DEAN MORGAN PLAYING THOMAS WAYNE > THATS THE BATMAN FOR THE FLASH POINT STORYLINE
Grant gustin we miss you
just shows how creatively bankrupt this era of movies and multiverse nonsense is that they can bring back a defeated villain (a boring one at that from a heavily flawed movie) and him be a threat that actually screws over their world with no happy ending really. man, they brought the modern Batman back to do him wrong.
I can’t wait for Indiana jones 5 to review because I heard it sucks too and I never want to watch 4 and 5 anyway so I don’t care about the franchise anymore
Thoughts on the first three Indiana Jones movies? I love the first three
@@colewarnerreviews5834 I love them to and I still got the 1992 VHS tape all three collections the original version not the remastered version that they put out in the early 2000s
My favorite one and best one is temple of doom
Awesome rant
I have never been impressed by crossovers (or "All Stars", as it was referred back in the 1990s). Crossovers always come off as cringe.
Its very rare when a crossover works for me.
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THONG AS I WATCHED THIS MOVIE TODAY > THEY REALLY SEEN HOW MARVEL TREATS SPIDERMAN AND THOUGHT TO THEMSELVES THATS HOW WE NEED TO DO ARE FLASH
This movie is proof superhero fatigue is very real. Guardians made good $ bc it was the last one. Other than tht these movies are gonna keep flopping if it ain’t Spidey Bat or Deadpool. 3 hr bloated cgi garbage. James Gunn Superman need to be delayed a few years. The fatigue is real and tht DCEU stink is still in the air. There’s good nostalgic n there’s bad nostalgia. The 80s isn’t nostalgia anymore it’s just old. Seeing Keaton u laugh at it. Who’s this for? 40 year olds? Nostalgia is the 00s now. Thts why NWH worked. Bale would’ve made more sense. Can’t get him. Then don’t do it.
MK dying in Ezra's arms is not as big an atrocity as Kirk dying for nothing and getting a pauper's burial in ST:G. ;)
I think the younger Barry Allen was supposed to be a modern "re-imagining" of Kip Flash.
Kip Flash ?
@@richardtracy8242 A Flash version of Robin.
Don't you mean "Kid" Flash ?
@richardtracy8242 I checked and it's actually "Kip"
Don't know who "Kip" Flash.
I know Wally West used to call himself "Kid" Flash when he was a Member of the Teen Titans.
I LOVE THE FLASH AND BARRY ALLEN AS THE FLASH BUT THIS IS NOT HOW BARRY WOULD ACT/SOUND/ LOOK/ TALK just everything they did with ezra miller was bad characterization.
The flash is good character in the comics and animated stuff but Ezra is the most worst casted actor since Kate bosworth as Lois lane just does not fit the character no wonder they changed the flashpoint story cause Ezra can’t be the flash cause that version demands an Adam brody who was cast In George miller’s cancelled justice League movie or a comedic and dramatic actor with charm for the film and not a creepy Jared from subway like awkward fruit cake but even when he does all these controversial and looney things and people demand a recast even with the tv version instead they thought the audience would go and see a film with this basically criminal in it is the peak of human stupidity and they knew this film wasn’t gonna do well so they put Keaton in here for nostalgia that’s why he is there enough said
Adam Brody would be a better choice. He was great in Ready or Not and I liked him in Shazam films. I've warmed up to him and he's got that nerdy but likable vibe. Not to mention he's sane, pretty and likable in real life. Not to mention, his wife is absolutely gorgeous!
I loved seeing Keaton again, but they wasted him. The Christopher Reeve cameo was painful as a fan of those films. This movie shouldn't exist, why didn't they just make Batman 3 with Michael Keaton, and have Billy Dee as Two Face. That should have been made in the 1990s instead of Batman Forever.
Blame it on McDonald's for that
@@BRIANOCONNOR2003 , true they don't even care if a film flops if they can have over a billion in toy sales like Batman and Robin. It is a bad way to make movies. Surprised Tim even put up with the insane asks of the producers like that hairdresser guy. Jon Peters. and worked with him again on Superman lives, which never was made, probably regrets that.
@@matthewgaudet4064 and batman and robin didn't have a McDonald's kids meal
That poor piece of paper
that scene with the food eating and saving babies was absolute trash. James Gunn calling this one of the greatest films ever made he's deluded. Ezra Miller was the worse choice to play The Flash he's even more cringe in this than he was in Justice League. You can totally tell the Clooney cameo was a reshoot due to Millers fatter fat and hair. apparently Nicolas Cage shot that cameo in person and yet it its CGI trash.
I didn't find it but not great either I think maybe the multiverse stuff in this film might be more convoluted than Spider-Man No Way Home. Some of the humour I liked the referential stuff though, which they might have been forced.
I liked the performances well especially by Michael Keaton I can see the views on Ezra Miller's performance.
I thought I heard some motifs of the music from the Matrix used in this film.
Your title Rant Is back they ruined thank woke hate feminism movies
seeing matt in the thumbnail reminded me of me being angry when I see my ex 😡
What do you think of Flash tv series?
Barry got naked in the streets and we didn’t need supergirl in the film 🎥 just flash villains only and not superman villains and we just needed the flash and batman 89 and some flash superheroes that it
YES BARRY ALLEN IN THE COMICS DOES NOT HAVE AUTISM 😂 OMFG 😅
I had a blast with the film.
